[Verse] In the city of bright lights Skyscrapers touch the sky Hustle bustles everywhere Dreams both rise and die [Verse 2] Concrete jungle loud and wild Neon signs and flashing lights Subways crowded late at night Chasing dreams or losing sight [Chorus] New York New York the Big Apple She's rotten to the core New York New York the Big Apple Can't take it anymore [Verse 3] Street performers sing their song Crowds just move along High hopes and broken dreams City never sleeps it seems [Bridge] Silver spoons and cardboard beds Homeless hearts and crowned heads All collide in a twisted war In the Apple rotten to the core [Chorus] New York New York the Big Apple She's rotten to the core New York New York the Big Apple Can't take it anymore
